Nocturnal, doing the day shift?

by karensch

This one's walk is not clear enough, and the spots are just not clear. I guessed spotted hyena, but it walks more like aardwolf, I think. Also, it is clear daylight, when this should be a nocturnal creature. Any other thoughts on this one?

#really confusing! Any good ideas about this one? looks a bit more like the walk of aardwolf, perhaps, but day time? Hyena?

#spotted-hyena - no confusion. Nothing else is spotty & scruffy. This is a young one so the spots are clear. Hyenas are often active by day.
